4th Annual Fly-In
Mount Washington Regional Airport (KHIE) is having its 4th Annual Fly-In on Saturday, June 29, 2019. This year’s event promises to be bigger and more exciting than ever with the first Airshow in New Hampshire’s North Country in over 30 years. Opening with a patriotic flag jump, the airshow will feature aerobatic performances by Scott Francis and Jason Flood, as well as a pilot skills competition open to all. In what must be a first for a fly-In, presenting sponsor Conway Scenic Railroad will bring its steam locomotive, the Canadian National Railway #7470 to the airport and offer a brief excursion. There will be biplane and helicopter rides, ATV fun rides, static aircraft displays, railway speeders, an antique tractor show, a classic car cruise-in and more.
Bring the whole family – There will be plenty of good food and fun for everyone. Visit our Craft Fair to shop and watch demonstrations by local artisans. Kids will enjoy a scavenger hunt, riding a miniature railroad, flight simulators and more. Bring a big bag for the helicopter candy drop at 3:30pm.
